CUERVO, José Luis et al. Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease: Case report. Arch. argent. pediatr. [online]. 2008, vol.106, n.6, pp.535-538. ISSN 0325-0075.

Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease is a self-limited condition of young adults, that usually involves the cervical lymph nodes and is associated with persistent hyperthermia. Diagnosis is based on characteristic pathologic findings, that allows the diferential diagnosis with other similar clinical conditions. We report one case of Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease in a 12 years old girl and review the world literature.

Palabras clave : Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease; Histiocytic necrotizing lymphadenitis.
